Great Mower, Cuts Awesome

I am very happy with the mower. It cuts really well even at higher speeds. I went with the steering wheel model due to the slope of my lawn and likelihood that my wife would also be mowing. It was a great decision on both counts. My wife can handle it with ease and it handles the hills very well. This was my first zero turn mower so it wasn't until my second mow that I discovered how to actually engage the zero turn function (yep, I'm an idiot...I don't read owners manuals). When completing your turn, the steering feels like you've reached it's maximum turn, however when you increase pressure slightly it will engage the zero turn transmission. What a difference! Overall I'm very happy with the mower. I can mow my 1 acre lawn in about an hour.

The "huge pain" was unboxing the mower. The delivery company I worked with was awesome. I paid for curbside, and the delivery man wheeled the pallet jack all the way up my driveway and into the garage (with me helping push). This was not part of the curbside delivery so keep that in mind. I got really lucky. It's very well packaged and unboxing was easy. Getting the mower off the pallets was a major project. There was a single pallet on the bottom and then 2 side by side pallets on top of the single pallet. The bottom pallet was centered under the side by side second row pallets.
The problem is the height of the mower above the floor and the mower deck. I couldn't simply push the mower off the pallets, because it would likely damage the mower deck. I had to use a reciprocating saw to chop up the pallets into pieces. I removed all wood directly below the mower deck (took about an hour). This left the front and back wheels on pallet platforms. The front of the mower was light enough to lift slightly and then push the pallet out of the way and then set the wheels on the floor. From there I could roll the mower forward to allow the back tires to roll off the pallet. You have to disengage the back wheels (look it up in the manual) in order for the mower to roll.

It was a lot of work the way I decided to "unbox" the mower. It could probably be avoided if you have 3 strong friends to help you.

Paul,

I am very sorry to hear about the issues you experienced with your mower and apologize for the inconvenience. I would strongly recommend contacting a certified Toro repair center for this work. Toro Service Center Locator

PROS...Machine works awesome, great power. Added mulching Recycler kit. No Complaints on quality.

CONS...Machine arrived with packing crate/pallet damaged. Mower shifted and BOTH rear wheels were FLAT. Impossible to get it to garage and took hours to remedy... Mowers Direct shipped new tire assemblies a week later.

It Sucks!

The steering wheel came off while cutting grass. Yes the steering wheel was torque as directed. The front wheels are so hard to turn, looked for grease fittings but none were to be found. Arms are tired and sore just trying to steer the damn thing after getting the steering wheel back on.

Pros:Couldn't think of one.

Cons:Low Quality, Heavy, Unreliable, Expensive

Steven,

I am very sorry to hear about the issues you experienced with your mower and apologize for the inconvenience. This will be covered under warranty and will not cost you anything to have repaired. I would strongly recommend contacting a certified Toro repair center for this work. If you need assistance locating your nearest dealer, please give us a call and we can help. Thank you very much for your business and I hope you have a great day.

I purchased mower Jul. 20, 2017 from a local Toro Dealer. I liked the idea of the steering wheel opposed to the handle bar operation. To mow my lawn with a push mower it takes 1 hour and 45 minutes. My zero turn, first time out took me 40 minutes. Being a new user I haven't quite got the knack in the proper turn around method. I read one of the other reviewers comments, that gave me the idea I was not accomplishing the proper turn. The reviewer said when making the turn you must fully turn the wheel to it's maximum capability thus allowing the steering transmission do it's job.

I have not tried this as of yet because I've only used this machine twice. However, I must add that my second time I did decrease my cutting time by 5 minutes. My next cut I will try giving the wheel more of a turn to see if it makes the cut turn better. So far I love this SW4200 zero turn. I love the safety features but I'm still not used to them either.
I do have a question: Do the back wheels have grease fittings?

Paul,

Based on the information in the manual. It does not indicate the back wheel have grease fitting that need to be serviced. Most likely these are sealed. For more information, Toro can be reached directly @ (888) 384-9939.

This is more about shipping and packaging than performance, as I have only mowed the lawn with the Toro once so far ... Still learning, but it started right up, and it pulls better than the 48" Husqvara I previously had...I think the Toro layout with the engine weight behind the drive axle and my fat rear end ahead of the axle makes for better traction.

The zero turn seems to work well, but the complexity of the steering mechanism is scary...only time will tell how well it lasts. Delivery was a snap...I paid for the drop gate delivery, and the driver pushed it down the drive and into the garage...easy-peasy.

Cutting off the box was a chore, but not hard to do. I had four stout men from work come to the house and lift the mower off of its pallet...after that, just add the seat and the steering wheel, check the oil, add gas, and get after it.

Mine Failed In The First Hour Of Use

Didn't finish mowing my yard the second time before the mower began dragging a rear tire. Thought initially it was the electric parking brake. Apparently it is a gearbox... It cut well for the hour I got to use it. Now it's off to the shop for "warranty service."

Best Mower I Have Ever Owned

I have 2 1/2 acres of mostly sloping land 10 to 15 degrees not counting several ditches, trees and a goat house.
I spent about 1 hour getting familiar with the feel and controls.(Note: If I had mostly flat land I would have spent a lot less time)
After this, I finally felt comfortable enough to tackle what I call "heartbreak hill."

This is a steep bank along a fence line with a sharp turn that has always given me trouble ... even my old Husky zero turn would do burn outs on dry ground. This SW4200 felt like it had 4 wheel drive. It could climb like one of my goats and did not skip a beat.

Nice Machine

The mower does a nice job, with lots of power. I did have one problem. On my third tank of gas, I +-stopped to talk to my wife, and the left drive would not release and move.

What I found was the lock nut was missing on that side brake linkage. I replaced it and add another nut to lock it better. I checked the right side lock nut and found it was about to fall off. I tighten and added another nut (double nut).

Great So Far...

I have only used this once so far, but the design is well thought out. It's very easy to remove the deck. It takes under a minute! The seat adjustment is moveable, but you need to loosen bolts to do so. It's also light enough in the front end to lift by hand if you are strong enough.
Mow in reverse is really nice and you can mow at full speed with sharp blades no problem. I only weigh 145lbs and the seat sensor does not cut off the blades if it's bouncy from rough terrain.

I use the bagger and it is very easy to remove the whole set up. Like the deck, you need no tools and it takes under a minute.

There isn't too much else to say positive other than it works as intended. As far as quality goes, we'll see as time goes on.

There are 2 things that I dislike and it's not necessarily a problem with the design. It will do a zero turn properly without rutting out a spot with one wheel. However, if you are moving forward as you drive out of the turn, at one moment it will pivot one wheel without rolling and carve a bare spot. You have to turn your steering wheel while stopped and then move or don't turn as sharp while moving.

The other issue is only 2 scalp wheels. I scalped some spots that my previous hired mowers never did. It's not really an issue so much with the mower as it is with the land. It all depends on knowing how to navigate the mower. Although and extra scalp wheel might help.

As a side note, I used mower deck graphite coating and properly prepped. It wore off down to the red paint first use over 30% of the surface area. Don't bother with coating the deck.

The Toro SW4200 Zero Turn is the best investment in a lawn mower I have ever made. I cut 3 acres of grass in I/3 the time it takes on my John Deere 52 in. cut. Of coarse the blades are sharp at this point but it is the best lawn mower I have ever owned. It is perfect for my application and I would recommend it to anyone.

The Best..

This is an awesome mower.. turn the wheel and it truly is zero turn.. the mow quality is superb.. climbs hills up (be careful), and down (let off the pedal and it brakes). I mow very steep hills with this (down the hill). The engine never lugs at all no matter the hill or grass height.. If you have a "tractor" this mower is beyond compare.

Trim close to a wall, just turn the wheel. Never a scalp with the deck. I hope it holds up with years of use. The steering wheel zero turn is what you want. Goes sideways across slopes (Careful with this) without having to stress the transmissions. It's easy to control on sideways slope. Always mow down hill if it's steep, and you'll be safe. It even has a can holder.

Trust me, this is good stuff.. hopefully it's durable over the years.. Initial quality looks like it might. I think the tall deck height (4") is key to grass exiting the side discharge.

From Mower's direct you can't beat the price plus free shipping, PLUS no Tax! Home Depot would be more bucks with all the adder costs.

Sw4200 Update

Pros:
Only used the unit a few times. Mowed well and handled uneven ground. Cut mowing time about half. Zero turn needs some constant re-learning for me. I am sure I will get more opportunities next season.

Cons:
Steering wheel is on the small-ish side, requires a spin knob or something a little larger radius. Making a quick turn equals a lot of hand over hand work.

I Love Mine

When I first fired It up I was in love with it. I had a Dixon and it was ok but hard for me to get on because I'm disabled but I can slide right on this and lower the steering wheel. The only thing I learned the hard way was to check the blades for being level.

Mine was way off but real easy to adjust. And it was my fault its not in the setup book but is fords the back of the owners manual to check that before using.

"When I had a question they where quick to get an answer for me and take care of the problem"

My new Toro mower is awesome! I have about 1 1/2 acres and this mower rips through it in no time. The ride is a little bumpy so forget about having a beer in the cup holder as it will turn to foam :-). I bought the mulcher kit and it works great but, as another reviewer suggested, make sure you sharpen the blades that come with the kit first before installation.

Also as mentioned by others it was difficult to uncrate (that baby was going nowhere during shipment) and having the lift gate service is definitely worth the money. I've only had the mower about three months and so far so good! I went with the Toro SW4200 because I'm too uncoordinated to use lap bars and the steering wheel makes it so much easier. A definite TWO THUMBS UP!

Great Mower

I have been mowing my lawn's for the last 20 years with conventional lawn tractors , most recently a cub Cadet 46 inch, 20 hp, with a hydro-static transmission. During the last several years, all my neighbors have converted to zero turn mowers with levers.

This was not an option for me in as much as several years ago I suffered a stroke which left me walking with a limp and full use of only my right arm and right leg. With the aid of a knob on the steering wheel, I'm able to enjoy the benefits of zero turn mowing.

The fully adjustable steering column is also a great aid to my getting on and off the machine. Happy so far with the purchase .

Easier, Quicker And Cheaper

I purchased a Toro SW 4200. It was on my door step in North Carolina within 48 hours. I couldn't believe how fast. It was $100 cheaper than buying it locally and didn't have to pay any sales tax and the freight was pre paid. It comes in a very substantial carton that takes a little while to uncrate. The assembly of the mower was super easy and took less than 15 minutes.

I needed info the Toro manual didn't supply and Mowers Direct had my answer in minutes with one telephone call.

Have used many mowers and service people to mow for me and have never had a cut as smooth and even as this mower. Part of the lawn is a very small outparcel and I don't need my Toro 21in Push mower any more because of the zero turn. A good deal all the way around.

Love The Sw4200

Had not mowed a lawn in 16 years, so decided to try my first rider. Mowers Direct allowed me to research all my choices. My moderate-sized mountain-side lawn made the steering wheel option in a zero turn rider an important feature. Decided on a Toro over Cub Cadet because of the superlative reviews by other Toro owners.

The SW4200 arrived as promised, but with a low battery. Local authorized service replaced the battery, no questions asked. Mower started right up with minimal assembly, and is a superb mowing machine. Even cut, no scalping, stable with handy controls and adjustable seat/steering wheel. My wife even commented how easy it is to operate on her first ride.

This zero turn mower, with the adjustable steering wheel is a delight to use. It is intuitively obvious from the very beginning how to drive it and mow. Over half our yard is pretty sloped.

This mower handles it with ease.Good traction and plenty of power. I purchased it late last summer. After off loading it, I had it ready to mow in about 35 minutes. This Spring it is back at work and doing a beautiful, even job on a 1 acre lawn.

"This is the painless way to get lawn equipment. Plenty of choices, good advice and quick delivery to the house.
Except for small items, always get lift gate service. The shipping company only sends one person and even with left gate, the off loading can be a challenge."

Very difficult to take off the crate. Figured out that it was easier just to drive it off, in reverse, than to try and dismantle the skid. Got the mulching kit. Of course the blades were not sharp, even though they were wrapped in several layers of cardboard.

Drove like a dream, cut even better, once I sharpened the blades. Very little amount of grass clippings showing after a run. One important thing to mention, slow down in sharp turns and if you can't, then do a loop turn. Actually fits through my chain link fence gate.

Screws holding crate together defy removal as none of my screwdriver heads fit them. One complaint: all the expensive weights sent with bagger are not needed with steering wheel model. Can I return them for credit?
